Cajun Coconut Chicken Pasta

1 1/2 lbs. of chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces, uncooked
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 Tbsp. Cajun seasoning of your choice
2 Tbsp. butter
2 cups coconut milk
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. corn starch
1 tsp. black pepper
1 package or box of rotini pasta
2 roma tomatoes, chopped
3/4 cup green onion, chopped
Shredded parmesan

Cook pasta according to directions.  In a skillet on medium high heat add olive oil to the pan and chicken.  Sprinkle the cajun seasoning over the chicken as it cooks.  Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked.  While chicken is cooking, in a medium sauce pan combine butter, cream, coconut milk, garlic powder and pepper.  Remove about a cup of the sauce and whisk in the cornstarch and then pour it all into the sauce.  Heat until boiling, stirring frequently.  Once the sauce is done combine it with the drained pasta and chicken.  Serve and top with tomatoes, green onion and parmesan.

Cajun Cilantro Chicken Tacos(by Dylan and Holly)

1 1/2 lbs. of chicken, chopped
1-2 Tbsp. (depending on how flavorful you want it) of any Cajun seasoning
1 Tbsp. of canola or vegetable oil
Shredded Mexican cheeses of your choice
Fresh Cilantro
Black Beans(1 can drained and rinsed)
Sour Cream
White Corn Tortillas

In a frying pan(med. to med. high) heat up your oil then add your chicken.  Add your Cajun seasoning and cook the up the chicken until it is fully cooked.
While this is going on, pull out the old griddle pan(this is the fastest way to do this) and turn your burners to medium.  Throw on(not literally) as many tortillas as will fit.  Heat for about 30sec. on one side then flip for another 30sec. until they are heated through.  Put them on a plate and cover them with foil.
Feeding time!!: Grab a tortilla, put some sour cream(adding this first makes everything stay in better), then chicken and your other toppings.  Enjoy!  Repeat 2-3 more times as you will not be able to stop eating these!!
